Rich from Success4 recently had the honour of interviewing Kris Godinez from "We Need To Talk with Kris Godinez" which has a huge following on her facebook and youtube channels as she helps people recover from narcissistic and borderline abuse. ABOUT KRIS I am Kris Godinez, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Arizona. A graduate of the University of Phoenix Master of Counseling program in 2005. Prior to receiving my degree, I had extensive experience volunteering for grief recovery programs such as The Dougy Center and The New Song Center. Kris was raised in an emotional abusive household with her father having Borderline Personality Disorder (malignant) and her mother having strong BPD traits. In this podcast we cover the signs of abuse, the terminology, how to protect yourself and how to move on and recover. http://www.ahacounselingaz.com/
In this brand new episode of The Toll House, i get the absolute pleaser of interviewing Kris Godinez of "We need to chat with Kris Godniz". Kris has helped thousands overcome emotional abuse by Narcissitic partners. I speak with Kris about her life growing up with a father who was a malignant Borderline and a mother who had strong traits of BPD. I relate some of my own stories of having a partner with Borderline Personality Disorder, some of the issues that came up and how these are ever so commen with a Cluster B partner. Emotional Abuse is sometimes hard to even recognise as abuse so we talk about how to spot the signs, how to gain the strength to protect yourself and how to find a good counselor when in recovery. We also talk about the ever increasing numbers of the people who are diagnosed with a cluster B personalty Disorder that are now trained psychologists and the scary thought of them practising and treating vunerable people. We stress that it is the Malignant end of the scale we are covering and talking about. Here is a link to Kris facebook page where she does a LIVE Video every Sunday. https://www.facebook.com/Weneedtotalkwithkrisgodinez/
In this weeks Toll House podcast, I got the absolute pleasure of sitting down with one of the guys that have helped me through allot in the past few years, Richard Grannon The Spartan Life Coach. Richard helps individuals overcome and protect themselves from Narcissitic and Cluster B Abuse. I found Richards work when I was researching Borderline Personality Disorder due to an ex partner who was diagnosed (according the them) with BPD. It was an incredibly confusing time with allot of manipulation, gas lighting and emotinal turmoil along the way, which I now know was abuse due to the advice and guidance from people such as Richard Grannon, Kris Godinez from "We need to talk with Kris Godinez" and Dana morningstar. Richard has helped well over 27,000 subscribers on his Youtube channel linked below, plus thousands in person and via other means such as his website and podcasts. This interview we chat about terms like Gas Lighting, Reframing, Flying monkeys and much much more. If you feel you might be in an emotionally abusive relationship with a NPD , BPD or any other Cluster B personality Disorder then i would highly recommend Richards work. It was a turning point for me and many others in understanding covert abuse, fighting back and recovering. http://spartanlifecoach.com/ Richards Youtbe Channel https://www.youtube.com/user/SPARTANLIFECOACH Brick In The Wall Media
